Recall Signature Drive - A Couple of Random Thoughts
So I was talking with a buddy last night about the recall and Pastor Brown's followers' push for signatures last weekend.
(Aside from the extreme irony of them trying to collect signatures at the Greek Festival over the weekend when homosexuality was accepted even by ancient Greeks)
If they are still pushing, and if they have to try to have all these successive weekend petition drives, it tells me a couple of things.
#1 - They don't have the signatures yet.
#2 - They are getting pretty desperate to get them.
If they had the signatures, trust me they would've made a big public to-do about having them and turning them in. I'd bet Pastor Brown, Theresa Caballero, and Stuart Leeds would be have invited the media and commented on how quickly they were able to get the signatures.
But no spiking of the political football or endzone dances as of yet.
Having to go out to congregations to get signatures is literally, pardon the pun, a Hail Mary pass. I think word has gotten around the Catholic Community that Pastor Brown has some very anti-Catholic sentiments on this website. Of course this is just my opinion, but you can't bash Catholics and then expect them to board the hate train express.
Except Father Rodriguez. For someone who says he's such a Defender of the Faith, what the hell is he doing aligned with someone who is so anti-Catholic?
Which reminds me, a friend of mine wrote a letter to the Bishop about Father Rodriguez and cc'd Rodriquez. Here are their emails if you should find yourself so compelled. officeofthebishop@elpasodiocese.org. Rodriguez's email is dvrodrig@gmail.com
I am going to. It's been a while since I've chatted with Bishop Ochoa...
